About this listen
The fate of the world is in the hands of a father and daughter in an epic novel of wonder and terror by Dean Koontz, the number one New York Times best-selling master of suspense.
Since his wife, Michelle, left seven years ago, Jeffy Coltrane has worked to maintain a normal life for himself and his 11-year-old daughter, Amity, in Suavidad Beach. It’s a quiet life, until a local eccentric known as Spooky Ed shows up on their doorstep.
Ed entrusts Jeffy with hiding a strange and dangerous object - something he calls “the key to everything” - and tells Jeffy that he must never use the device. But after a visit from a group of ominous men, Jeffy and Amity find themselves accidentally activating the key and discovering an extraordinary truth. The device allows them to jump between parallel planes at once familiar and bizarre, wondrous and terrifying. And Jeffy and Amity can’t help but wonder, could Michelle be just a click away?
Jeffy and Amity aren’t the only ones interested in the device. A man with a dark purpose is in pursuit, determined to use its grand potential for profound evil. Unless Amity and Jeffy can outwit him, the place they call home may never be safe again.
Includes an audio-only short story, "Parlor Trick," a kind of karmic coda to the novel.

Quinn Quicksilver was born a mystery—abandoned at three days old on a desert highway in Arizona. Raised in an orphanage, never knowing his parents, Quinn had a happy if unexceptional life. Until the day of “strange magnetism.” It compelled him to drive out to the middle of nowhere. It helped him find a coin worth a lot of money. And it practically saved his life when two government agents showed up in the diner in pursuit of him. Now Quinn is on the run from those agents and who knows what else, fleeing for his life.

Story4 out of 5 stars 37
In retreat from a devastating loss and crushing injustice, Katie lives alone in a fortresslike stone house on Jacob’s Ladder island. Once a rising star in the art world, she finds refuge in her painting. The neighboring island of Ringrock houses a secret: a government research facility. And now two agents have arrived on Jacob’s Ladder in search of someone—or something—they refuse to identify. Although an air of menace hangs over these men, an infinitely greater threat has arrived, one so strange even the island animals are in a state of high alarm.

A decade ago, Emily Carlino vanished after her car broke down on a California highway. She was presumed to be one of serial killer Ronny Lee Jessup’s victims whose remains were never found. Writer David Thorne still hasn’t recovered from losing the love of his life, or from the guilt of not being there to save her. Then David meets Maddison Sutton, beguiling, playful, and keenly aware of all David has lost. But what really takes his breath away is that everything about Maddison, down to her kisses, is just like Emily.

Past midnight, Chyna Shepard, twenty-six, gazes out a moonlit window, unable to sleep on her first night in the Napa Valley home of her best friend’s family. Instinct proves reliable. A murderous sociopath, Edgler Foreman Vess, has entered the house, intent on killing everyone inside. A self-proclaimed “homicidal adventurer,” Vess lives only to satisfy all appetites as they arise, to immerse himself in sensation, to live without fear, remorse, or limits, to live with intensity. Chyna is trapped in his deadly orbit.

Odd start but well worth the listen

Written by: Dean Koontz
What the critics say
“Ballerini (a Koontz veteran) is tremendous, and Parks makes strong choices in diction, pronunciation, and pacing to bring Amity Coltrane to life. The collaborative effect of Ballerini and Parks' narration works as a deliberate “all-in” to the production, making the audio version even more of a standout.”—Booklist
“Colorful, imaginative…a lively, offbeat novel.” —Kirkus Reviews
“This is a genre-busting work that happily will appeal to readers who enjoy thrillers, horror, sci-fi or just a flat-out well-told story with a breakneck pace that never lets up.” —Bookreporter

This was such a great book. full of action. I normally only do longer books. however, this is great. The voices weren't bad either. I listen at 1.5x though.

Story is butchered by the female narrator
The reading style of the female narrator made this very difficult for me to get through the whole book!

Dean Koontz is one of my favourites
I love it when he shows his softer side. He really does imagine all possibilities and makes us follow along with his visions.

don't miss this story due to narration!
If this is your first Dean Koontz novel , you're lucky , because he has a library of stories from which to choose. This is not a typical cookie cutter author, his stories are diverse and his use of lyrical prose woven through take his readers to magical places, this story is no exception. Enjoy the journey :)

Oh Boy
I really enjoy Dean Koontz and this story was great. The male narrator did a fabulous job. However, the female narrator was very difficult to listen to and basically ruined the novel. She does not seem to understand punctuation. I will not listen to another book that lists her as a narrator. I do look forward to another in this series though!

Sliders, only scary.
Dean Koontz used to write Space Opera and other SF before he graduated to Horror.
Now even his SF seems filled with Horror.
This book reminded me of the TV series "Sliders," wherein a mad scientist and his friends travel the universe with the assistance of a hand-held device.
We have the mad scientist trope, and the addition of pursuit by shadowy evil agents.
I could have done without the short story "Parlor trick."

Horrible Narration.
The male parts were fine but the female parts were horrible. Poor pronunciation, awkward pauses, and general lack of emotion pulled me out of the story countless times. The story was interesting but I doubt I will listen again.

Fun and somewhat frustrating to see folks doing exactly the wrong things at the worst times, the tale ends much quicker than wished. It would have been nice to explore a few more elsewheres.

t's'ok
I had read reviens about the young woman reader so I was prepared and it didn't make me want to stop listening... she does have very bad timing for pauses, it's unpleasant but didn't ruin the story.
the story itself is a great premise, but the need for the author to have the characters make stupid decisions in order for the story to move forward is a bit disappointing. anyway, all in all not a bad listen.
